TYSON FURY admits he's saddened that Mike Tyson will be Francis Ngannou's corner for their Saudi showdown.<\/p>\n

Boxing rookie Ngannou has enlisted the help of former undisputed heavyweight champion Tyson in a bid to shock the world in the ten-round exhibition.<\/p>\n

And Fury, who was named after Iron Mike by his dad John, can't help but feel down about the boxing icon trying to plot his demise.<\/p>\n

The undefeated WBC heavyweight champion told Sky Sports: "I think that it\u2019s sad, actually.<\/p>\n

"The man that I am named after, a legend, has to go against me and then come out as a loser.<\/p>\n

"Having lost to a man who was named after him.<\/p>\n

"I think that it\u2019s sad and I think that he should be in my corner, not the opposing corner.<\/p>\n

"But business is business and I understand that it\u2019s strictly business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tyson, 57, has been impressed by what he's seen of Cameroonian clubber Ngannou in their brief stint working together.<\/p>\n

But Fury insists the American's iconic mantra will ring true as soon as he sticks it on the MMA man-mountain.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cNo matter what he teaches this fella [Ngannou], no matter how much boxing training he does, everyone has got a plan until they get punched in the face.<\/p>\n

"And I\u2019m not sure who said that, but that is true. They\u2019ve all got a plan until they get smacked in the mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Tyson being on Team Ngannou, the Fury family still hold the New Yorker in the highest regard.<\/p>\n

But that hasn't stopped John from calling out the iconic heavyweight for a rumble on the undercard of his son's controversial outing.<\/p>\n

The 59-year-old told SecondsOut: "Why wouldn't I not speak to Mike Tyson?<\/p>\n

"I love the guy, I named my son after him. And if he wants to fight me on the undercard he can, no problem."<\/p>\n
